SAN RAFAEL, Calif. (AP) - A judge says a convicted serial killer on California's death row can be extradited to New York to stand trial for two 1970s-era murder cases there.
A Marin County judge on Tuesday ruled that 68-year-old Rodney Alcala can be sent to New York, but stayed the ruling until Alcala's extradition appeal is settled.
The Marin Independent Journal reports that Alcala's lawyers fought extradition so he could stay in California to prepare his death penalty appeal.
Alcala was sentenced to death in 2010 in Orange County for the murders of four women and a 12-year-old girl. Among the evidence found were photographs Alcala had taken of the victims.
Alcala was indicted in New York last year for the murders of two 23-year-old Manhattan residents found strangled to death.
